"I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes I have to turn my head until my darkness goes."

M:
Wearing: Jcrew shirt dress, roxy bathing suit.
I was hoping today would be nice enough to go to Jones Beach, but as it turns out (just my luck), it's raining all day up there. :( I guess that means Cas will be home for Lake Compounce and Jones Beach!
I was searching a D.I.Y website last night and came across a pillow case dress, which is a dress made out of a pillow case! I decided to make one for my little sister Greta. It's not quite finished but it's getting there. Wish me luck!
xxxxx.

She thinks of him and so she dresses in black, And though he'll never come back, she's dressed in black.

M:
HEY HEY HEY! I feel like I haven't posted here in awhile! I got home from Virginia Beach this morning at 2 and then my sister woke me up at 7 30, lovely 5 hours of sleep. The night before I left I realized I needed a bag to carry my things in for the car ride up, which is how I came up with this black cross-body bag. I used a black leather belt for the strap, and the inside of my old soccer shirt for the body. Ta-da! In it I carried my book, Water for Elephants, and Beetles & Black Eyed Pees CDs. If I find any pics I'll add a couple! Ciao! xxxxx.

"I feel it in my fingers, i feel it in my toes. love is all around me"

C: I bought a few large white tees the other day and they really inspired me to jazz them up. So i dug threw my attic and found some old fabrics. I cut out a square of this vintage floral fabric, and sewed a nice pocket to my shirt. I also cut the seves shorter and the bottom to make it less like a dress! Then i tucked it into a pair of levi jean shorts..popped on some vintage boots..pinned back a few strands of hair, and headed off to the movies. Try it, whats the risk? And don't forget to let me know how it turns out!

"Tearin' it up, and we're burnin' it down".

C:
I found this jean jacket shoved in the back of my closet the other day, and knew there had to be something I could do to it! I decided to rough it up! I found a few good knives, scissors, sand paper, and my personal favorite-- bleach (also known as acid wash). After ripping it up enough to my standards, I headed outside with some bleach. Pouring it into the lid and splattering it over my new and improved jean jacket, gave it the touch it needed! (While also seeping into the deep cut i had just made with those handy dandy knives). I'm hoping to add some studds to my jean project too!! Let me know what yah think??

You've got style, that's what all the girls say.

M:
Made this high waisted skirt just now, cut it from an extremely long skirt we had sitting in our attack. What do ya think?? xxxx.

These boots are made for walking.

M:
I was looking at the Urban Renewal collection at Urbanoutfitters.com and was inspired to make something of my own! Ta-da! It's not a very exciting shirt but it's a start. First thing I did was actually make the shirt, then I stitched the arms to keep them folded, and I may bleach it later. What do you think? Good for a first timer I believe, or hope? Comment telling me what else I should add to this shirt to make it crazy!
SEEYA. xxxx.
